With tears in my eyes, is Lao Mo so arrogant? I have decided to continue playing in the martial arts world. (Well-behaved.jpg)

…
Tower!?
For some reason, when Tantai Dongshu and the others heard this word, their hearts trembled inexplicably.
Apart from the fact that this term has never been spoken within the family, there is also the expression on the face of the Shijia ancestor when he finished speaking.
The old and turbid eyeballs showed a little fear, and the wrinkled skin was trembling slightly... All the subtle expressions at this moment revealed the extraordinaryness of this word.
I'm afraid that in the memories of Shijia's ancestors, this "tower" occupies a very special position!
The old man caught a glimpse of the expressions of the three people, but didn't say much. The long life he had lived had made him no longer care about such trivial matters.
In other words, the "attention" he showed in front of his juniors was intentional.
As for why it was intentional?
Probably that tall tower...it's really scary.
All kinds of psychology finally converged into the current complex mentality, but he has the obligation to pass on this "fear" because it is the soul of Wuyuan Lu.
In this way, the old man fell into long memories again under the uneasy gaze of the three young people.
"It is a tall and slender-looking tower. It hangs in the sky, like the sun, like the moon...it illuminates the path of practice for countless people."
"It has nine floors, or in the end we only saw nine floors."
"From a secular perspective, the [Qi] in our Mist Plains Continent is about three times more dense. But compared to the surroundings of that high tower, the [Qi] I felt when I first entered the Mist Plains Continent was only one-tenth of it at most.
!”
There is actually ten times the star source concentration there!
The Shijia Ancestor dropped a bombshell that shocked the three young men, who were all leaders in their age, to the point where their tongues went numb. They could barely restrain their inner impulses and stood up.
"It's very exciting, isn't it? We were also surprised at the time. This concentration of star source means that the upper limit of practice will be raised again. The pleasure brought by constantly exceeding the upper limit and breaking through the shackles of genes has made countless warriors cry with joy."
"This means they will live longer and they will explore the nature of life more deeply."
"The practitioners who were originally scattered across the Misty Plains Continent began to gather in large numbers at the Sky Tower. In just one month, nearly a hundred Ten-Star practitioners were born in that gathering place."
"All practitioners firmly believe that we are about to usher in an era of prosperous martial arts!"
At this moment, there seemed to be light in the eyes of the ancestors of Shijia.
Tantai Dongshu and the three of them also believed that it must be an era when strong men could move mountains and seas, but when they thought about it, even greater doubts arose in their hearts.
Why has Wuyuan Continent not moved towards a more prosperous era?
"But that's not the case." Ancestor Shijia's story continued without interruption, and for the first time there was solemnity in his voice.
"More and more people gathered together, and the vast spiritual energy soared into the sky. We found that the more practitioners there were, the closer the tower hanging in the sky was to us. And as the tower got closer to the ground
The closer you get, the richer the surrounding Qi becomes. But the richer Qi is so violent... that it far exceeds expectations."
"A warrior who broke through to the 11th Star Realm exploded, and then more and more warriors exploded and died."
"Those warriors who relied on their strong strength to occupy the bottom became the first group of people to die."
"Even if they chose to retreat in time, they still couldn't escape the fate of madness because they inhaled too much violent energy early."
"People must stay away from the center, but they don't want to go too far. After enjoying the pleasure of rapid advancement in spiritual practice, no one can give it up completely."
Tantai Dongshu and the others understand this feeling very well. There is power at their fingertips. As long as they absorb it carefully, the risk will be minimized. If it were them, they would not refuse this temptation.
"People have rebuilt the practice circle on the periphery. Although some people still go crazy, the death rate has begun to decrease. Is this a good trend?" Shijia Ancestor suddenly asked.
The three of them were stunned for a moment, then nodded in unison.
"But..." Zhao Feiyu wanted to ask one more question.
The old man showed a scary smile.
"The tower was finally pulled into the earth. Fissures that had never been seen before suddenly appeared. More violent [Qi] emerged from the cracks, endless!"
"A large number of warriors were caught off guard and exploded to death! People quickly expanded the practice circle again, but then they discovered that the cracks were spreading uncontrollably like mold spots on orange peels. The holy place of practice was out of control and backfired on the surrounding areas."
Hearing this, the three of them shuddered.
Just thinking about this image is terrifying.
"Ancestor, how was it solved?" Gu Qixing finally couldn't help but ask.
"At that time, the most amazing and talented person among us was named Li Guanglie. He was the first person to be promoted to the Ten Stars, and he was also the first person to continuously set foot in the Eleven Star Realm and the Twelve Star Realm! He and seven other people formed a
He joined the advance team, walked backwards inwards, passed through the rift area, and approached the tower. With great wisdom and great means, he [pried] open a gap at the entrance of the tower, and they rushed in..."
"Then!" Tantai Dongshu swallowed, his throat felt extremely dry, and his palms were already sweating.
"Only Li Guanglie returned, seriously injured and on the verge of death." The old man picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water.
ah!?
The three of them never expected such a result, but the old man did not give them time to think, but told all the subsequent events in one breath.
"Lord Guanglie came back with force... We learned that there are creatures we have never seen before in the tower, and any one of them can easily crush the entire advance team. There is a planet hanging there as big as a bamboo hat.
In the sky, there is a world that far surpasses the Kirihara Continent in terms of levels."
"The thing he regrets most is that he guided the creatures there to the direction of Wuyuan Continent. He warned us never to go in and never open the door to the Hell of Hell!"
"Lord Guanglie's last contribution before his death was to create a means of sealing the tower with flesh, blood and life energy, and he himself became a part of the seal."
"The situation is urgent. A large number of crazy warriors were forcibly sacrificed. The blood dyed the earth red, and the flesh and blood soaked the soil. The purified Qi rose up and lingered for a long time. It opposed the violent Qi, forming a huge ring, and accumulated over time.
It was closed in the middle, and finally the whole tower was isolated and sealed. This is the origin of the first generation seal of the forbidden area."
"At first, the survivors would capture the wild spirits and sacrifice them for blood. But as the giant beasts swarmed into the depths of the mountains and forests, it became increasingly difficult to capture them. Simple life sacrifices were no longer enough to maintain the seal, and people had to walk to another road.
the way--"
"Externally, the ascended ones began to replenish the population from the secular world. They are the blood bank of Wuyuan Continent!"
"Internally, every year, people who have made mistakes are forcibly sacrificed, or people who are old enough sacrifice themselves."
"The forbidden area is not only a seal to prevent the emergence of great terror, but also a cemetery for generations of people in Kirihara Roku."
"There is an unwritten rule gradually forming among the major families. All the dead people in Wuyuan Continent must be buried in the ancient land and use their own Qi-rich flesh to mend the seal."
"The history that follows is the past as you know it. The only surprise is that the barriers of Wuyuan Continent are getting thicker and thicker, and the original passage is closed, turning into another world that is completely independent of the secular world!"
The old man put down the tea cup, his expression extremely calm.
Tantai Dongshu's back was already covered with cold sweat.
It turns out that this is the reason why all high-level warriors in Wuyuan Continent must be buried in forbidden areas before they die!
It turns out that this is the origin of soul sacrifice!!
It turns out that the fundamental reason why Tantai Zang was sent to Earth was to find a new blood bank!
Without the input of external blood banks, we can only rely on Wuyuan Continent's own hematopoietic ability... However, the mountains and forests of Wuyuan Continent are dangerous, so in recent years, major families have continued to organize ancient land expeditions under various names.
It turns out that the truth of the world is more cruel than imagined.
…
The ancestor of Shijia stood up with his hands behind his hands. His withered face swept across the three of them. He turned and walked to the other side of the hall. His voice slowly came:
"You remember, surviving is the eternal pursuit of people in our world. The more power you enjoy, the more responsibilities you must shoulder."
The three of them knelt down in the room, resting their foreheads on the bluestone, and said in unison:
"Really follow the teachings of our ancestors."
The old man carefully pulled out a yellow silk package from under the altar table and said without looking back:
"No need to be polite, get up. Now is the time for me, an old immortal, to show off my remaining energy. Please read and listen carefully to this divination."
Tantai Dongshu and the others immediately stood up, holding their breath and staring intently at the Shijia ancestor who turned around.
The yellow silk had already been rolled out, and in the old man's hand was the original appearance of the object...
